    Welcome, jhernjh. Great job with the post. :) The one with the perforated lid that twists would be for something like talcum powder.

    The shaker with holes is the one for talcum powder.

    The other would be for a liquid/lotion of some sort.

    That is what my lady mentioned

    Did not think about that, that make sense.

    Thank You both for your insights
